Need help with a missing LJ soft top bolt

[Temecula Black LJ]

So I picked up a really nice Chrysler LJ soft top that looks like it has never been used. The windows are still in their boxes. Its came with most of the screws, but is missing the bolt and nut assembly at the top of the door frame. Looking for some help on what sizes I might need to purchase, or is this a special order type of setup? The arched plastic piece on top makes me think it is more than a standard bolt that I would need. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

You can easily get that bolt from Bestop who made your soft top. Probably mail it to you for free. It's a special spring-loaded bolt that technically is not needed when the top is in its normal down position, it's only needed for if you want to flip the front of the top back to give you a big sunroof. I've never used mine.

Jerry, thank you for the keen eye. I actually opened the box of door surrounds that came with it and they have that spring loaded bolt on them. So that saves me that troue. Weird, I thought it was a stock top because the windows are from Chrysler, but with old stuff, you never know where it came from.

The factory tops were made by Bestop. Yours is a factory top.
